President-elect Donald Trump’s first 100 days in office will usher back Rachel Maddow to a nightly primetime slot on MSNBC.
The far-left critic of the former and future president will be offering her “unique insight” as she returns to the air five nights a week after “The Rachel Maddow Show” has only been airing once a week since 2022 where she reportedly pulled in an audience of 2.3 million viewers in 2024.
STARTING MONDAY: Join Rachel @maddow as she hosts 5 nights a week for the first 100 of Donald Trump’s presidency.
She’ll offer unique insight and analysis as bills are passed, executive orders are signed, and the presidency is defined.

Maddow told USA Today in an interview that she is expecting a “very intense news cycle” once Trump returns to the White House next week
“We’re already seeing the freneticism of the Trump news cycle taking over, even during the transition,” she said. “We’re seeing the unpredictable cadence of the way news breaks as opposed to a more competent rational administration. So we’ll see; we’re trying to be ready for anything, and that’s part of why we’re making this change for the first 100 days.”
“If this shambolic transition is anything to go on, the second Trump term is going to affect a lot of Americans, and they’re going to want to pay attention,” the conspiracy theorist and Trump-hater continued.
The MSNBC lineup change is a temporary one as Maddow said “on April 30 we will go back to our existing schedule.”
“That is a hard stop. When Rashida asked me to do this, that was the discussion,” she said, referring to MSNBC chief Rashida Jones
“We’re already seeing the freneticism of the Trump news cycle taking over, even during the transition… so, we’re trying to be ready for anything, and that’s part of why we’re making this change for the first 100 days,” Rachel @Maddow tells @USATODAY.

USA Today noted that MSNBC’s prime-time ratings have been down 58% since the November 2024 election, “a sharper drop than typical post-election ratings dips.”
Social media users on X exposed the ongoing Trump Derangement Syndrome at the network and Maddow’s return.
“Unique insight,” huh? What will she spew that she hasn’t spewed before now?

Richard Madcow falls even further into irrelevancy with more confirmation of severe TDS. This is part of why you no longer control the narrative. You are no longer the “news”.

Is fear and TDS your only business strategy?

@MSNBC Is like a speedy wide receiver who can run fast but can’t catch or run routes. They can only trash talk and lie about our president. America does not believe them any longer, with their ratings tanking you think they might want to cover actual news And report it honestly.
